Riding the Highway

I’ve already sounded
the alarm on Brad Mehldau’s new album, Highway Rider. Here, via Nonesuch and the jazz blog Nextbop, is a behind-the-scenes EPK. And
yes, Jon Brion is exactly that animated about the state of jazz (though, I
suspect, secretly a bit less cynical).

I'm very excited to hear this album. Its so refreshing to see an innovative player like Mehldau working with a producer outside of the genre who has such a unique style. Also great to see Matt Chamberlain on drums.
